Your Tannery in Arzignano Imports Wet-Blue from Brazil and Sells Finished Leather Across Europe. Under the EUDR, You File the DDS. Here's How to Do It in 15 Minutes.

Italy is the heart of European leather processing. Arzignano (Vicenza), Santa Croce sull'Arno (Tuscany) and Solofra (Campania) import millions of raw and semi-finished bovine hides from Brazil, Argentina, India. Under the EUDR, the EU-based operator who first places the commodity on the EU market files the DDS in TRACES NT. For Italian tanneries importing directly, that operator is you. You need origin data — geolocation, legal documentation, risk assessment — from your supplier. EUDRCheck generates the complete dossier from that data in 15 minutes. €199 per dossier.

The numbers that matter

Italian leather processors occupy a unique EUDR position. As EU-based operators importing bovine commodities, they bear the legal obligation to file the DDS in TRACES NT. The data comes from the supplier — but the responsibility is yours.

If your tannery imports from multiple origins, each lot from each country requires its own DDS.

What the EUDR requires from you as the EU-based operator

You import the hides. Under Article 4, you compile the data from your supplier and file the DDS in TRACES NT.

1
Commodity
HS 4101. Annex II point 2.
2
Country of production
As declared by supplier — Brazil, Argentina, India, etc. Annex II point 3.
3
Geolocation
Provided by origin supplier — the ranch, not your tannery in Arzignano. Annex II point 4.
4
Supply chain mapping
Rancher/hide collector → meatpacker/tannery at origin → your facility. Annex II point 5.
5
Legal compliance
Country-of-production law — your supplier documents this; you include it. Art. 2(40) + 3(b).
6
Risk assessment
You assess risk based on origin country, specific supplier, 14 criteria. Art. 10.

EUDRCheck produces the entire package — structured under Annex II, ready for TRACES NT.

Three most common mistakes

Pattern 1 — Assuming the supplier files the DDS

You are the EU operator — you file

The supplier provides data; you file the document in TRACES NT.

Pattern 2 — Your tannery geolocation instead of origin

Annex II point 4 = the ranch in Brazil or Argentina

Not your processing facility in Italy.

Pattern 3 — UNIC / ICEC / LWG as Art. 10 substitute

Industry certifications ≠ risk assessment

Art. 10.2(m): complementary evidence only.

Enforcement reality

Under Article 25 — the fine applies to you as the EU operator.

🇪🇺
Fines — minimum 4% of EU annual turnover
≥ 4%

Article 25.2(a) requires Member States to impose fines with a maximum of at least 4% of the operator's or trader's total annual EU-wide turnover in the financial year preceding the fine decision. The maximum may be raised to exceed the economic benefit gained.

🇪🇺
Confiscation of the commodity and its revenues
100%

Article 25.2(b) and (c) — the relevant product and the revenues from its transaction may be seized by national customs and competent authorities.

🇪🇺
Exclusion from EU public procurement
12 months max

Article 25.2(d) — temporary exclusion from tendering procedures, grants and concessions for a maximum of 12 months.

🇪🇺
Temporary market ban in serious or repeated cases
Indefinite

Article 25.2(e) — prohibition on placing relevant products on the EU market until full compliance is demonstrated. Applies to the European buyer, who will pass the consequence upstream to the non-compliant supplier.

Article 25.5.

What EUDRCheck guarantees and what it doesn't

EUDRCheck generates a document structured under Article 4 and Annex II of Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 (as amended by Regulation (EU) 2025/2650) based on the information you enter. The truthfulness, accuracy and completeness of that information is your responsibility as operator or supplier of the consignment.

We guarantee that the document structure follows Article 4 and Annex II of Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 and that the legal references cited are correct as of the latest verification date. We do not guarantee that a specific document will be accepted by a market surveillance authority in a specific case, nor by a commercial buyer in a procurement process.

EUDRCheck is not legal advice. For specific situations, consult a lawyer or specialised regulatory consultancy.

What if I buy from an EU-based trader?
If the trader already imported and filed the DDS, you may have downstream obligations depending on your role.
Do I need origin data from my Brazilian supplier?
Yes. Geolocation, legal documentation and risk assessment data from the origin country.
UNIC guidelines enough?
No. Complementary evidence only.
Privacy?
